[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elmi:
So recently I warrantied a G2 and was glad I never rooted and rommed it with CM7. I had CM on my old G1 and would love to get into it again. Can I go back to stock in case I need this one warrantied? I don't want them to know I did anything with it. The other topics that popped up in the search weren't specific with warranty. Thanks.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lainvalenajr:
Yes there are procedures you have to follow in order to unroot and s-on again if you have to return it for warranty reasons or whatever reason you have. Its pretty simple... but it matters what method of rooting you did. Like unforgivens way of rooting you have to hex edit and while on gfree you can flash the PC10IMG.zip but still get s-off and you have to follow more procedures i think to get s-on...

[Galaxy Tab General] Alcibiade:
I converted my file system to Ext4 and I have two questions

First one: I don't seem to be seeing all files or folders on my SD card when browsing my Tab from my PC. is this normal ? Lots of data (incl my Titanium backups) I don't seem to be able to see on my PC, and the created folders on my external SD created by my PC don't seem to be available when I look for them directly on the Tab (Via MYfile explorer)

Another question: I tried to copy from my PC to my Tab a 7 Gb file (mkv) But then my Windows 7 tells me the file is too big for the target file system (Surprising for an Ext4 file system).

Anything I did wrong there ?
[Galaxy Tab General] Alcibiade:
Anyone has a clue?
[Galaxy Tab General] Bulut.O:
This is because the FileSystem from SD CARD is FAT32...

You can only copy files in size MAX. 4GB on FAT32

NTFS would be different... But is not supportet...

EXT4 has nothing to do with this...
[Galaxy Tab General] pphatde:
I thought that conversion to EXT4 included the internal SDCard.

Therefore what is the interest of converting Tab to EXT4 ( apart being able to install some custom Roms ) ?

Is an external SD Card converted manually to EXT4 would be readable by the system tab ?
[Galaxy Tab General] Alcibiade:
Ok so the SD vard is not converted to EXT4?

In which case I understand the limitation

What about the fact I dont see my Tab files under windows through USB connnection? (File on SD card at least)
[Galaxy Tab General] pphatde:
Have you put in Tab parameters "Act as Masse Storage Device" ? ( not sure about the translation )

In that case I see all my files.
[Galaxy Tab General] Alcibiade:
Yes I did, that's why it'spretty weird :(
[HTC Aria Android Development] Call_er_Roxie:
Folks,

I have a HTC Aria unrooted and just upgraded to the official Froyo 2.2 build via HTC's site.

I backed up all my data an Apps via MyBackup and Astro, however when I do a restore the AT&T software sees the restore as non-market apps and of course blocks it.

I know I can restore my apps via the market, or SWM, or via ADB, which I've done. However, my issue is my actual app data is gone, for example all my memos for Wizard Memo are gone as well as all my tags for Shazam.

I suspect the data is backed up to my SD card somewhere...problem is I don't know how I can recover it via ADB commands. I've tried a "pull" of my system files but I honestly don't know how to dig through them or even what files to look for (since apparently the data isn't in the backed up .apk).

Any guidance appreciated. Yes, I tried searching Google and XDA!!!

Thanks...
[HTC Aria Android Development] bunky213:
Astro doesn't back up data, just the apps. don't know about mybackup
[HTC Aria Android Development] intruderdroid:
Unfortunately for you, not only does Astro not save the user data of apps but not all apps write their config settings and user data to the SD card in the first place nor is it always possible for them to due to what the data is used for. Since installing a new OS essentially wipes your phone, all of the user data is gone....and since you are on the stock rom....you can't install from your backup because of AT&T.
[HTC Aria Android Development] ValkyrieLiberty:
That's not true, titanium backup keeps app data, market links, and user data for apps.

edit:,My mistake, you are not rooted.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Call_er_Roxie:
Thanks for your responses.

Well, I also did a MyBackup.

I bet the app data is on my SD somewhere. I am just starting to mess with ADB commands and I bet there is a way to place that data in the right lace. It's just a matter of doing a "pull" of the right data and doing a "push" to the right place.

Tht's my guess anyways.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] adampdx:
I installed few apps over the last couple of days and all of a sudden I noticed Flash wasn't working like it had been. I also noticed decreased screen sensitivity on the outer half inch of each side of the tab. For instance, the home softkey was not responding. I have uninstalled all apps that I recently installed and now things seem to be working well again. I think I've narrowed down the apps, and I'm pretty sure Pinball Deluxe was the culprit.

Has anyone else had a similar experience? I know someone will ask, and yes I used the touch recalibration app.

Hello,where can i found a good and easy tuto to make the legend s-off???

I cant find a clear step by step

Thanks a lot !!!!
[Legend General] whitetigerdk:
Hi.. Step by step is given in the process..

Just go to www.alpharev.nl download the iso and boot it.. Then you are instructed..

Othervise search the development section.. There are 2-3 threads regarding this issue..
[Legend General] CrazyPeter:
How safe is this? I am concerned about modified HBoot and partitions, as surely this is the stage that can brick your phone.

There were a lot of horror stories when it came out, have things settled down?

EDIT: I would say it's not very safe at all. My first impressions are that the script is fraught with danger. First try failed to copy files and aborted (perhaps I said yes to install Clockwork Recovery when I already had it?), 2nd and 3rd tried it simply didn't go into fastboot despite pressing the power button loads of times. Each time a nervous battery pull.

Given up, before I end up with a bricked phone.
[Legend General] dangal:
If a make a nandroid and something with s-off go bad,can i restore the backup and everything is ok?
[Legend General] CrazyPeter:
No, if HBoot flashing fails, the phone is bricked.
[Legend General] dangal:
Ok,was easy,make a iso boot cd,3 steps and everything is ok i have s-off in the legend
[Legend General] MaBlo:
@CrazyPeter: I think it's more scary than dangerous. The timing in step 1 and 2 is way off, but step 3 is straight forward(this is the dangerous part). You just have to make sure the phone is connected.

Edit: I had to count to about 4.5 seconds after the -------> before pressing power. When it tells you to press power it's to late.
[Legend General] CrazyPeter:
You certainly need to know what you are doing.

It's VERY possible you get lucky and get past stage2 but fail on stage 3 timing, if this is the case, then you have a partly updated boot and you need to boot recovery and nandroid backup (in the Advanced restore) the Boot partition and then try everything from the beginning again.

It took me 5 times round this route. It wouldn't be so bad if the script detected that you were restarting after the first timing critical bit and carried on from there.
[Legend General] MaBlo:
As I remember there are no timing on step 3, only 1 and 2. Once you get past step 2 it's pretty easy. It can still go wrong though, if you loose connection when the bootloader is flashing during the 3rd step.
[Legend General] dangal:
Now i have S-off,to enter in recovery mode what is the bets method?
[Legend General] vpupkin:
Hello!

I've read lot of different topics here, but still cannot find exact answer for my questions.

I have a HTC Legend Device with S-ON.

It's CID is HTC__038, and HBOOT version is 1.01.0000

Do I have any chance to S-OFF my device? Does success of S-OFF'ing depends on how fast you press buttons during procedure? Can I still use custom ROM's without s-offing my phone?

Thanks a lot!
[Legend General] segphault:
You cannot S-OFF your Legend if the HBOOT version is above 1.00.

The chances of an S-OFF success do not solely depend on "how fast you press buttons".

You can still use custom ROMs without S-OFF.
[Legend General] androidnooby:
S-OFF

Can i use AlphaRev 1.8 HBOOT reflash utility with temp root to get S-OFF, i have an unbranded legend, open network phone (not sim locked) and HBoot 0.43.0001, Radio- 7.05.35.26L, I'd like to try CyanogenMod. I have been trying to root my phone using paul modaco's tutorials with no luck. Please help

Can I remove it? I have a 16gig card id like to put in the phone... Thanks!
[HTC Inspire 4G] Noz85:
Yup you can swap the cards

sent from my HTC Inspired Desire HD 4G
[HTC Inspire 4G] zswielder:
I'll piggyback on that question because I just ordered a 16GB class 10 card myself (I know class 10 is overkill, but who knows what we get in the future ;).

I guess my question is, if you put a different sd card that is not a gold card, can you still use features like Backup and Restore in ROM Manager?

Are there any differences in any other ways?
[HTC Inspire 4G] ioft:
Yes, you can. The goldcard was only needed to perform s-off/root/etc. I used an old 2gb sd card as my gold card and then swapped it and tossed it aside in case I need a gold card in the future.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mkhang:
So I've flashed over to incredibly RE-engineered and I heard about the great battery life and speed. I sure did have a more noticeable speed improvement but my battery life hasn't gotten any better. Any reasons why this might be? And for some reason I can't load any videos off hulu either. Anyone have these similar problems?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g00s3y:
Everyone's battery life is different because everyone uses their phone differently. One person may get great battery life because they don't do much with the phone, and someone else will try the same, but they do a lot of streaming, web browsing, etc and have horrible battery life. It's all trial and error until YOU find the combination that works well for YOU.

And the hulu problem I believe there is a fix for it in the thread. Search the thread for Hulu and you should be able to find it. (I am not sure of this because I don't use the rom, but I believe I read something about it when I tried it out.)
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spence341:
Battery life if tough to compare due to reasons above. When I was syncing a corporate email account via active sync I was getting 9-10 hours o this rom. I am no longer using active sync and right now am at 15 hrs 37 minutes since unplugged at 62%. Awake time is about 5 hours on this charge. This is with stock battery.

Exchange active sync is a hog.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mkhang:
I use my phone pretty often and Im usually texting and browsing on the net. But my battery life is maybe 6 or 7 hours? I haven't really gone all the way down to empty but that seems about right. Is that decent?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smoonyheim:
That's not quite good. On my stock battery I'm getting around 15-25 depending on use. Maybe check your settings for battery hogs?

I'm using chads kernel, have sync on every hour for weather and my friend stream tied accounts.no gps on though.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mkhang:
I'm not sure what's wrong with my phone. My battery usage says that most of my battery is being used by cell standby and the android system. Should I reflash the rom and see if that helps? I want incredible battery life too :( this battery life is pretty much the same as a stock rom which is why I flashed in the first place : more battery life!
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dadio91:
I'm not a power user but I get better battery life with this ROM. Yeah, maybe you should wipe and re-install the ROM. I would then not install any apps and see what your battery life is like. Disable auto-syncing too. Maybe you have an app sucking the battery down.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mkhang:
Is there an app that i can download to monitor my battery usage? I know you can check it through the "About Systems " menu but I almost don't trust it.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spence341:
Spare Parts has the ability to let you know what's using the battery.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mkhang:
How do I tell what is using it through spare parts? Nothing really stands out?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baboonsRus:
Running a faster rom like re engineered, if battery life is super important, you can use setcpu to underclock slightly at all times, and lot at screen off. It comes with a lou's kernel, which he doesn't recommend using setcpu with, but I've always had great luck with king klix kernals, which also undervolt.

[Xoom General] tomyboombotz:
I'm lookimgs fo widgets that are simlar to launcher pro widgets any one have any ideas
[Xoom General] Ballzdeeep:
You could try installing launcher pro. It's not in the market, but you should be able to find the apk with a little elbow grease.
[Xoom General] keitht:
Ditto. Load LauncherPro. You have to buy it to get the widget but it is cheap and worth it. Attached is a screenshot of my screen. Upper left is Friends widget which combines FB and Twitter feeds. Totally worth it.
[Xoom General] mrmomoman:
I used LP 0.8.3 plus since I got the Xoom. Wasn't sure how it would turn out but I figured it couldn't hurt. It's been fanatastic. Have to tweak some small settings to make it snappier transitioning screens but it does the job well. The ability to stretch the Widgets and the additional Widgets makes it worth the effort. Feels very customized and it works great.
[Xoom General] codeworks:
For those running Launcher Pro... Are you using the CNN stackable widget as well?

When I installed LP+ and would flip through the CNN widget stacks, I would constantly get Force Closes on Launcher Pro. I finally gave up on it... Maybe I will try again.

Anyone experiencing the same? Or different?

Thanks.
[Xoom General] stevieraveon:
Cnn widget works fine for me (I have it resized a little smaller than what it looks like stock)
[Xoom General] lanternca:
Launcher Pro looks nice. I'll have to try it.

Is it your birthday Keith? Happy birthday, if it is.
[Xoom General] green94:
New to Android... so this could possibly be a dumb question.

When using the stock Twitter widget, it only displays one tweet at a time and isn't scrollable. When reading up on Launcher Pro, it said that you can resize and create scrollable widgets. Could I take the stock Twitter app, resize it, AND make it scrollable?

Thanks in advance.
[Xoom General] codeworks:
Here is another question related to Launcher Pro... I have my screens setup and all is working well, however, the stackable widgets (CNN, Youtube, etc) do not automatically flip every minute.

I know this is not a big deal, however, I am guessing they also do not refresh every minute as well.

Anyone seeing the same thing?

If this is a known problem, I am assuming this will be fixed when LP+ is actually released to use the Honeycomb engine.
[Xoom General] Mandelbrot.Benoit:
No.

LPP+ has a very nice twitter widget that is scrollable.

LPP+ does nothing to widgets that aren't LP widgets, other than allow you to resize them. The stock Twitter widget does not have the ability, that I've seen, to be scrollable, there for for me, it gets deleted.

Its very hard if not impossible to find LPP replacement widgets for the Calendar/Agenda, facebook, and twitter widgets. ADW an equally impressive launcher does not have these widgets, but has a couple other tweaks LP doesn't.

There are also themed versions for LPP+ and ADW which are very nice. I'm using a transparent theme, XTG and Love it.

Here's the thread for all the themed versions. Looks like he just added HC too. Make a backup of LP, delete it. Install the themed .apk and restore. Activation codes work and it really adds a nice touch.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=783427

Its sad that the stock Launcher is so inadequate. I really tried to like it but the lack of resizing the widgets is a complete fail imo.
[Xoom General] green94:
First off, great information. Really appreciate it.

A few follow up questions:

What are the differences between LPP+ and ADW beyond widgets? Candidly scrollable widgets is my most pressing need at this time, but I'm interested in hearing about the other "tweaks".

Do you use both launchers at the same time?

How do these programs handle battery consumption?

Lastly, which do you recommend for use with Honeycomb?

Thanks again
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bavarianblessed:
Hate to be that guy, but alas I am:o

I flashed my Captivate with the latest Twingerbread ROM. Everything was running nice and smooth until I decided to use a Galaxy S Mod tool from the market place to change my battery icon.

Long story short the phone is now stuck trying to boot. It will run the Twingerbread loading animation for a few seconds, flash a screen that says

Candidates:

Preparing external SD Card

and then continue with the loading animation.

Before this happened I had been able to force download mode using only the volume up/down buttons, that is no longer the case. I have tried using adb to access and force download but the phone isn't found whether powered off or in it's current "loading" state. ODIN is able to recognize it as a COM:7 device but fails to flash it.

I'm in a bit over my head here, anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhernand1102:
Try this:

Open Odin and plug the cable into your computer only not your phone

Remove your battery from your phone

Wait 30 seconds and put it back in, don't turn your phone on

Hold both volume buttons down and then plug the cable into your phone, it should go into download mode.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bavarianblessed:
Thank you for the suggestion but I can't get that to work for me. I tried it multiple times but it simply loads the charging screen. I have heard the term jig thrown around a time or two in here but can't seem to find any more info on it. Would that be my next step?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhernand1102:
Yes if that doesn't work then you will need to get a jig to force download mode. Look here....http://www.mobiletechvideos.com/blog/?page_id=100

well to stay civil as well without any profanity my sig shows MetroPCS because XDA doesn't have it in the list of carriers and i had tmobile before.

i do have a hero but i don't use it since the usb port broke and i wanted at least froyo with sense fully operational but even then haven't really found a rom to meet my needs and likes. sue me for not updating my sig to show every device i own, i have drawer full of phones, i just don't feel the need to put them on there.

and since there is something newer why not at least look at it to see if it's a better alternative. if the whole world thinks like you seem to think then we would still be living in caves, no offense and don't take it the wrong way but that's life, gota always be thinking out of the box
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gidkid:
Before this gets out of control, I just want to say that yes, people tend to get upset over these things, but for good reason. You can't just expect some devs to pull a Sense Gingerbread out of a hat - that's unreasonable and just annoying.

With that said, I have a feeling that this guy meant it more as a polite, respectful request. He probably just wanted to tell everyone that Sense gingerbread is out, and if someone is ready to port it, it's out there - and I can understand that. Give him the benefit of the doubt.

If anyone out there is left with a Hero who can do this, I'd be elated if they'd port this ROM over, and I'm sure a lot of others would be, too.

Just don't ask for it like it's an entitlement.
